My suit is posted in the "Asked to a prom" thread that I started, second to last page I think. The point is, that I bought the suit, including the shoes, as one outfit, and that WHY should I ever own another pair of dress shoes if I only will ever own ONE suit?
Geophysicists show up to work in jeans and plaid shirts at best. If we have to meet with a client in consulting, we put on our suit.

 

teg, who thinks Azine needs a fashion sub-forum

 

I get my shoes at Sport Check, or Randy River.

 

I remember that picture, in which case with your suit I wouldn't try it. You can wear dress shoes with other things then a suit, don't be a fool and wear polished black dress shoes with a pair of ripped jeans, but a clean set of properly fitting jeans with a dress shoe with texture(like lizard, snake, stingray, etc....) works. Now with style being so relaxed you can even wear a set of loafers with a suit- just make sure the slacks have been tailored accordingly. You can wear the same loafers with shorts, pants, jeans or what ever floats your boat. The point of all of this is dress shoes don't have to be uncomfortable shoes reserved for when you wear a suit. Maybe its not your style, but something possibly worth mentioning.

 

Am I the only one who doesnt give a rat's ass about shoes? I think the last time I cared was when Reebok Pumps were all the rage.

 

i wore the same pair of sneakers for nearly 2 years i was simultaneously wearing a hole through from the outside of the heel and the inside

 

I got 2 pairs of shoes.

One for everything, including walking around in the mall and mowing the lawn.
One for "nicer" events, which are also color-scuffed to hell. And now that I look at them, they were ugly in the first place.

Goddamn, I'm poor.

Thank god that's not what my girl noticed.

 

i got 5 pairs of shoes, a pair of new balance running shoes, a pair of kswiss shoes, a pair of those classic adidas shoes, a pair of black sketchers boot looking shoe ( ) and a pair of dress shoes.. but the kswiss and adidas shoes are like 3 yrs old and my running shoes are 2 and i never wear my sketchers cause they're like huge and clunky

 

I care about my athletic shoes because I am pretty hard on them. As far as dress shoes, I don't give a shit. I get the plainest looking Kenneth Coles and thats it.

 

Oh, I agree. At least two pair of dress shoes so that one does not wear them on consecutive days; they need a day to air out. And - really need dress in black and also in brown or cordovan, so that adds up to four dress pair. Need we elaborate on tie vs loafers? One really can't wear loafers to work, if it is a stuffy professional setting. Need dancing pumps. Need a decent pair of deck shoes for casual wear for low-key social events and running around on Saturday. Athletic shoes to match your athletic endeavors; I have two pair that I have for that - again to allow the damn things to air out between uses. Two is minimum; I'd trust Beetroot's assessment of the proper footwear for athletic efforts. and then there are the "exotics" - ski boots, for example.

I am really beginning to question, based on his posting in this thread, whether youngTL is really gay.........with four pair of shoes, he's not even metrosexual........

I buy expensive dress shoes, as I wear custom orthotics to help redistribute foot weight; cheap shoes don't cut it, and dress shoes are the "uniform" at my work. Have added up my shoes while posting - two pair of athletic shoes, one pair of casual deck shoes that can be pressed into use for a workout if I'm traveling, six pair of dress shoes, three pair of casual dress shoes, one pair of dancing pumps for wear with a tux, and ski boots. Flip=flops for the hot tub spa in my apartment building...... that is all.

 

If you have a longing for Barbra Streisand albums, it's confirmed.......

 

not much time for shoe shopping whilst on covert operations in unnamed countries far far away......................... nor does your shoe choice have much to do with your professional endeavors.......

 

Just posting to say that I've noticed that post too....

I don't have many dress shoes, I really need to pick up some more , but I do have an complusive disorder when it come to chuck taylor high tops

 

<-- owns bowling shoes.

 

Very true. I'm a light packer.

 

Nope...Never even heard any of her songs...

 

Well, then, you're safe, you macho man you.......... probably a bit metrosexual, but then, anyone posting on this thread.......

 

^^^^ very 2002.

 

i own about 16 pairs of shoes...nothing wrong with that.

 

Ive never understood the shoe thing.

Here is what I have- A really old pair of work sneakers that i use for things that will get dirty (like lawnwork, ect), a pair of sneakers for work. A good pair of sandals, and a pair of dress shoes.

thats it

 

amen brother

 

Ok, women of Azine, I am calling on you to help me. I need you to sleep with me so I can prove my hetrosexuality to Dom and GreenMonster... PM me with your pics and specs. Thanks.

 

Sister.....

 

Im a "sister" by the way.

 

In that case, you only have 4 pairs of shoes? That's fucked up.

 

I mean fucking hell, im always at work anyway, and when im not im usually just a jeans and tshirt girl..

Im into comfort more than anything. i mean i dont look like shit, but i dont get all stylish to go out somewhere.

when I do, I have a pair of shoes that work for it

 

sowweyyyy

 

^ wtf?

 

<---- Owns a pair of bowling shoes I stole in 1998.

 

Damn, no PM's yet...

 

You would have one but we get banned now for creating fake accounts.

 

Your ghey, face it whiskers.

 

its the reason why i have an orgasm when i buy a new hat

 

what are bowling shoes used for? Similar to deck shoes?

 

Bowling.

 

i have to echo ric, youngTL is the most ungay gay guy i've ever come across in my whole life.

no anal, no fashion concerns, 1 suit!

 

 

How many gay guys do you come across?




Sorry - couldn't resist.

 

 

I couldn't figure out "face is whiskers" - but if it has anything to do with wsklar it's going to be good.
